How do planets move if they are closer to the sun?
faster.
Do planets revolve faster or slower when they are close to the sun?
They move faster.
What will be the motion of ring?
The particles in the rings around planets move according to Kepler's Third Law. In other words, the particles closer to the planet move faster than the particles further outside.
Kepler discovered that planets move faster when they?
Closer to the sun.
Is Uranus' speed less than or greater than Jupiter's speed?
Less. Uranus is further away from the Sun. In general, the planets closer to the Sun move faster.
When two artificial satellite revolve around the earth the one's closer and the one's further. which one revolve the earth with higher speed?
The one that is closer will move at a higher speed. The same happens, for example, with planets revolving around the Sun - the planets closer to the Sun move faster.
Which planet has shorter travel time saturn or mercury?
Planets orbiting closer to their sun tend to move a lot faster then planets further out. This case is no exception Mercury has a year of 88 Earth Days, and Saturn has a year of 10,832 Earth days.
Is it true that the further galaxies are away from us the faster they move?
The further a galaxy is away from us the faster it's moving away from us.
Will a planet or comet be moving faster in its orbit when it is closer to or farther from the sun?
Planets and comets move faster when they are closer to the sun.
Will a planet or comet be moving faster in it orbit when it is farther from or closer to the sun?
Planets and comets move faster when they are closer to the sun.
What question was Kepler unable to answer?
he wondered if there was a reason that the planets closest to the sun move faster than the planets farther away.
Why do some planets travel faster than others?
The speed at which planets travel in their orbits depends on their distance from the sun and their mass. According to Kepler's laws of planetary motion, planets closer to the sun orbit at higher speeds because they experience a stronger gravitational pull. Additionally, planets with less mass also tend to move faster as they are less influenced by the gravitational pull of the sun.
